Abstract Background: beta-defensins are small cationic peptides that exhibit broad spectrum antimicrobial properties. The majority of beta-defensins identified in humans are predominantly expressed in the male reproductive tract and have roles in non-immunological processes such as sperm maturation and capacitation. Characterization of novel defensins in the male reproductive tract can lead to increased understanding of their dual roles in immunity and sperm maturation.

Abstract Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a metabolic disorder for which the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unclear. This investigation aimed to elucidate essential candidate genes and pathways in T1DM by integrated bioinformatics analysis. In this study, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed using DESeq2 of R package from GSE162689 of the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, REACTOME pathway enrichment analysis, and construction and analysis of protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, modules, miRNA-hub gene regulatory network and TF-hub gene regulatory network, and validation of hub genes were then performed. A total of 952 DEGs (477 up regulated and 475 down regulated genes) were identified in T1DM. GO and REACTOME enrichment result results showed that DEGs mainly enriched in multicellular organism development, detection of stimulus, diseases of signal transduction by growth factor receptors and second messengers, and olfactory signaling pathway.

Insufficient or excess RA can result in various congenital abnormalities, such as Hirschsprung disease (HSCR). In HSCR, neurons are absent from variable lengths of the gastrointestinal tract due to a failure of neural crest cell (NCC) colonization or development, leading to megacolon and/or the failure to pass meconium. Enteric neurons are derived from neural crest cells (NCC); hence HSCR is associated with incomplete NCC development or colonization of the GI tract. We investigated our hypothesis that RDH10 is necessary for proper NCC contribution to the enteric nervous system (ENS). The mouse point mutant Rdh10trex/trex exhibits decreased retinoid signaling and colonic aganglionosis. Organ explant culture and in utero retinal supplementation experiments define a temporal requirement for RA in ENS development between E7.5-E9.5.

  • The Transcriptome of Utricle Hair Cell Regeneration in the Avian Inner Ear
    The Journal of Neuroscience, March 5, 2014 • 34(10):3523–3535 • 3523 Development/Plasticity/Repair The Transcriptome of Utricle Hair Cell Regeneration in the Avian Inner Ear Yuan-Chieh Ku,1 Nicole A. Renaud,1 Rose A. Veile,1 Cynthia Helms,1 Courtney C.J. Voelker,2 Mark E. Warchol,2 and Michael Lovett1 1Department of Genetics and 2Department of Otolaryngology, Washington University School of Medicine, St Louis, Missouri 63110 Sensory hair cell loss is the major cause of hearing and balance disorders. Mammals are incapable of sustained hair cell regeneration, but lower vertebrates can regenerate these mechano-electrical transducers. We present the first comprehensive transcriptome (by mRNA- Seq) of hair cell regeneration in the chick utricle. We provide pathway and pattern annotations and correlate these with the phenotypic events that occur during regeneration. These patterns are surprisingly synchronous and highly punctuated. We show how these patterns are a new resource for identifying components of the hair cell transcriptome and identify 494 new putative hair-cell-specific genes and validate three of these (of three tested) by immunohistochemical staining. We describe many surprising new components and dynamic expression patterns, particularly within NOTCH signaling. For example, we show that HES7 is specifically expressed during utricle hair cell regeneration and closely parallels the expression of HES5. Likewise, the expression of ATOH1 is closely correlated with HEYL and the HLH inhibitory transcription factors ID1, ID2, and ID4.

  • Visual Gene Network Analysis of Aging-Specific Gene Co-Expression

Also, aging is irreversible and leads ultimately to death in biological organisms. Methods: We intend to characterize aging at the gene expression level using publicly available human gene expression arrays obtained from gene expression omnibus (GEO) and ArrayExpress. Candidate genes were identified by rigorous screening using filtered data sets, i.e., GSE11882, GSE47881, and GSE32719. Using Aroma and Limma packages, we selected the top 200 genes showing up and down regulation (p < 0.05 and fold change >2.5) out of which 185 were chosen for further comparative analysis. Results: This investigation enabled identification of candidate genes involved in aging that are associated with several signaling cascades demonstrating strong correlation with ATP binding and protease functions.
